Definitions
- the present invention relates to intraocular lenses (IOLs). More particularly, the present invention relates to IOLs that provide accommodating movement in the eye.
- IOLs intraocular lenses
- the human visual system includes the eyes, the extraocular muscles which control eye position within the eye socket, the optic and other nerves that connect the eyes to the brain, and particular areas of the brain that are in neural communication with the eyes.
- the visual system is particularly well adapted for the rapid and precise extraction of spatial information from a field of view which is accomplished by analyzing the continuously changing patterns of radiant flux impinging upon the surfaces of the eyes.
- Image formation is greatly complicated by the movement of the eyes within the head, as well as by the movement of both eyes and the head relative to the external sea of radiant energy.
- Visual input is ordinarily sampled by discrete momentary pauses of the eyes called fixations, interrupted by very rapid ballistic motions known as saccades which bring the eye from one fixation position to the next.
- Smooth movements of the eyes can occur when an object having a predictable motion is available to be followed.
- Each eye forms an image upon a vast array of light sensitive photoreceptors of the retina.
- the cornea is the primary refracting surface which admits light through the anterior part of the outer surface of the eye.
- the iris contains muscles which alter the size of the entrance port of the eye, or pupil.
- the crystalline lens has a variable shape, under the indirect control of the ciliary muscle. Having a refractive index higher than the surrounding media, the crystalline lens gives the eye a variable focal length, allowing accommodation to objects at varying distances from the eye.
- the aqueous humor fills the anterior chamber between the cornea and the iris
- the vitreous humor fills the majority of the volume of the eye in the vitreous chamber.
- the crystalline lens is contained within a third chamber of the eye, the posterior chamber, which is positioned between the anterior and vitreous chambers.
- the human eye is susceptible to a score or more of disorders and diseases, a number of which attack the crystalline lens. For example, cataracts mar vision through cloudy or opaque discoloration of the lens of the eye. Cataracts often result in partial or complete blindness. If this is the case, the crystalline lens can be removed and replaced with an intraocular lens, or IOL.
- IOL intraocular lens
- IOLs While restoring vision, conventional IOLs have limited ability for accommodation (i.e., the focusing on near objects). This condition is known as presbyopia.
- presbyopia To overcome presbyopia of an IOL, a patient may be prescribed eyeglasses.
- IOLs adapted for sufficient accommodation to reduce significantly or to overcome the effects of presbyopia.
- the present invention provides new and enhanced intraocular lenses (IOLs).
- the present IOLs enhance accommodation of an optic. More specifically, the IOLs of the present invention enhance accommodation by converting radial movement of the capsular bag to axial movement of an optic. In addition, the present IOLs may also amplify such radial movement to effect a greater degree of positive accommodation for near vision.
- an intraocular lens includes an optic and a movement assembly.
- the optic is adapted to focus light onto a retina of an eye.
- the movement assembly is adapted to cooperate with the eye to effect accommodating movement of the optic along an optical axis thereof.
- the movement assembly includes at least one, and preferably a plurality of, movement members and a suspension structure.
- the movement members are coupled to a periphery of the optic.
- the suspension structure is coupled to the movement members and is adapted to be in contact with a peripheral region of a capsular bag of an eye.
- the movement members are adapted to convert radial movement of the suspension structure caused by movement of the capsular bag to axial movement of the optic.
- the movement members may be adapted to amplify the radial movement of the suspension structure. Accordingly, substantial positive accommodation for near vision is possible with a relatively small contraction of the capsular bag.
- the movement members are configured to increase or amplify radial movement of the suspension structure into axial movement of the optic by approximately 200%.
- each of the movement members are articulated.
- each of the movement members may include a first segment and a second segment pivotally coupled together.
- a distal end of the first segment is pivotally coupled to the suspension structure, and a proximal end of the second segment is pivotally coupled to a periphery of the optic.
- This articulated two-segment linkage arrangement of the movement members allows radial movement to be converted and amplified into axial movement. More specifically, radial forces directed inwardly during contraction of the capsular bag are carried by the first segment. These forces are then transferred to the second segment at a pivot disposed between the two segments. The first segment and, correspondingly, the optic are urged anteriorly. This motion is amplified as the capsular bag continues to contract as the pivot follows a curved path which is translated into substantially axial movement of the optic.
- the suspension structure may include a plurality of arcuate contact plates each coupled to a respective one of the movement members.
- the arcuate contact plates are configured to support the IOL within the capsular bag.
- One of the advantages of this embodiment of the present invention is that the IOL is vigorously held within the capsular bag. More specifically, the contact plates collectively have a relatively large contact surface which engages with and supports the capsular bag.
- the relatively large surface area of the contact plates may also promote cellular and fibrous growth to this portion of the IOL, which further holds and retains the IOL within the capsular bag. Post-operative cellular and fibrous growth of the interior of the capsular bag to the contact plates is facilitated by the vigorous contact of the contact surface with the capsular bag.
- the IOL of the present invention inhibits unwanted posterior capsule opacification (PCO) onto the optic.
- the movement assembly may include a plurality of sharp discontinuities between the contact plates and the optic. Accordingly, cellular growth from the capsular bag to the optic is inhibited.
- the suspension structure may include a fulcrum ring coupled to the movement members, thereby interconnecting the movement members.
- the first segment of each movement member rotates about the fulcrum ring during accommodation.

- FIG. 7 is a schematic view illustrating mechanical movement of a movement member of the invention.
- an intraocular lens (IOL) 10 according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention is illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2.
- Exemplary IOL 10 includes an optic 12 and a movement assembly 14 coupled to the optic 12 .
- the optic 12 which has an optical axis O, is adapted to focus light onto a retina of an eye.
- the movement assembly 14 of exemplary IOL 10 cooperates with an eye to effect accommodating movement of the optic 12 and, in particular, converts radial movement (i.e., movement perpendicular to the optical axis O) of the capsular bag of an eye to axial movement (i.e., movement parallel to the optical axis O) of the optic 12 .
- Exemplary movement assembly 14 includes at least one movement member 16 and a suspension structure 18 . Desirably, there are a plurality of movement members 16 , each of which has a proximal region 20 and a distal region 22 . (The terms “proximal” and “distal” are used herein with respect to the optical axis O.)
- the proximal region 20 is coupled to the optic 12 at a periphery 24 of the optic
- the distal region 22 is coupled to an inner periphery 26 of the suspension structure 18 .
- the movement members 16 extend radially outwardly from the optic 12 to the suspension structure 18 .
- the suspension structure 18 has a contact surface 28 which is adapted to be in contact with a peripheral region 30 of a capsular bag 32 of an eye.
- the capsular bag 32 is connected to an annular ciliary muscle 34 by suspensory ligaments or zonules 36 .
- the ciliary muscle 34 is the chief agent in accommodation, i.e., in adjusting the eye to focus on near objects.
- the zonules 36 retain the lens in position and are relaxed by the contraction of the ciliary muscle 34 , thereby allowing a natural crystalline lens to become more convex.
- exemplary IOL 10 is configured to facilitate movement of the optic 12 in response to the action of the ciliary muscle 34 and the zonules 36 .
- the ciliary muscle 34 contracts, and the zonules 36 relax and reduce the equatorial diameter of the capsular bag 32 , thereby moving the optic 12 anteriorly as indicated by arrow A in FIG. 1 .
- This anterior movement of the optic 12 increases or amplifies the amount of positive (i.e., near) accommodation of the optic 12 .
- the zonules 36 constrict and increase the equatorial diameter of the capsular bag 28 , thereby moving the optic posteriorly as indicated by arrow P in FIG. 1 .
- the accommodating movement principles of the present invention are discussed in detail below.
- exemplary suspension structure 18 may include a plurality of arcuate contact plates 38 respectively coupled to the movement members 16 .
- each of the contact plates 38 is configured to complement the inner peripheral region 30 of the capsular bag 32 .
- Exemplary movement assembly 14 may include a fulcrum ring 40 coupled between each of the movement members 16 , preferably at the distal regions 22 thereof, to interconnect the movement members.
- Defined between each of the contact plates 38 is a gap or a joint 42 for allowing the plates to move independently of each other in response to contraction and expansion of the capsular bag 32 . Therefore, in accordance with the exemplary embodiment shown in the drawings, the suspension structure 18 is configured as a plurality of suspended pivotal arcuate contact plates 38 that are capable of moving responsively with the capsular bag 32 .
- exemplary movement members 16 of the movement assembly 14 are configured to articulate in response to contraction and expansion of the capsular bag 32 .
- exemplary movement members 16 are configured to convert radial movement of the arcuate plates 38 into axial movement of the optic 12 .
- exemplary movement members 16 are configured to amplify such radial movement to provide axial movement with a magnitude greater than the radial movement.
- the movement members 16 may be integrally formed (i.e., molded) as a single annular element, and thus be considered to be one piece.
- a conical coil spring or other such single member may be used with appropriate coupling structure.
- each of the movement members 16 includes a first segment 44 and a second segment 46 coupled together at a pivot 48 .
- the distal region 22 of the first segment 44 of each movement member 16 is pivotally coupled to a respective one of the arcuate contact plates 38 at a distal pivot point 50 .
- the proximal region 20 of the second segment 46 of each movement member 16 is flexibly or pivotally coupled to the periphery 24 of the optic 12 at a proximal pivot point 52 .
- each of the movement members 16 is configured as an articulated multi-segment linkage which, as will be discussed clearly below, translates and amplifies radial movement of the contact plates 38 into axial movement of the optic 12 .
- articulated has the traditional meaning of elements united by a joint or joints.
- FIGS. 4, 5 , and 6 This translation and amplification feature of the IOL 10 of the present invention is illustrated in FIGS. 4, 5 , and 6 .
- Exemplary IOL 10 is shown in FIG. 4A in various states of accommodation.
- a biased most-posterior position of the optic 10 is indicated by arrow B, shown on-axis from a posterior side in FIG. 4B, in which position the ciliary muscle 34 is relaxed in response to a need for far vision.
- an anterior position of the optic 12 is indicated by arrow C in FIG. 4A, shown on-axis from a posterior side in FIG. 3C, in which position the ciliary muscle 34 is contracted in response to a need for near vision.
- An intermediate position of the optic 12 is also shown in FIG. 4A, indicated by arrow I.
- FIGS. 6B 1 to 6 B 3 illustrate the posterior position B, namely, with respect to a fixed plane F in FIG. 6B 1 , on-axis from a posterior side in FIG. 6B 2 , and on-axis from an anterior side in FIG. 6B 3 .
- FIGS. 6C 1 to 6 C 3 illustrate the anterior position C, namely, with respect to the fixed plane F in FIG. 6C 1 , on-axis from a posterior side in FIG. 6C 2 , and on-axis from an anterior side in FIG. 6C 3 .
- the IOL 10 In operation during positive accommodation, if the IOL 10 is in the biased most-rearward position B and near vision is needed, the ciliary muscle 34 contracts as indicated by arrow N in FIG. 4 A. In response, the contact plates 38 move inwardly toward the optical axis O from an expanded equatorial diameter D e . In doing so, with specific reference to FIG. 5, a force F 1 along the first segment 44 of the movement member 16 is translated into a force F 2 along the second segment 46 of the movement member at the pivot 48 , thereby urging the optic 12 anteriorly to an intermediate position I and causing the first segment 44 to pivot anteriorly at the distal pivot point 50 through an angle ⁇ 1 .
- the IOL 10 may be oppositely configured and biased into the most-forward position (not shown) providing near vision, wherein far vision is obtained by rearward motion of the optic 12 .
- This translation in force amplifies the magnitude of the radial distance that the optic 12 moves.
- the contact plates 38 move radially inwardly a distance r 1 between posterior position B and intermediate position I
- the optic 12 moves axially anteriorly a distance a 1 between these two positions.
- the magnitude of axial distance a 1 is greater than that of radial distance r 1 .
- the second segment 46 of exemplary movement member 16 may include a concave surface 54 configured to accommodate the periphery 24 of the optic 12 when in an intermediate position I during accommodation.
- the force F 1 along the first segment 44 continues to be translated into the force F 2 along the second segment 46 , thereby urging the optic 12 anteriorly from intermediate position I to anterior position C and causing the first segment 44 to pivot anteriorly at the distal pivot point 50 through an angle ⁇ 2 .
- the contact plates 38 move radially inwardly a distance r 2 between intermediate position I and anterior position C, then the optic 12 moves axially anteriorly a distance a 2 , the magnitude of which is greater than the magnitude of radial distance r 2 .
- the magnitude of a total axial distance a T the optic 12 moves during accommodation is greater than a total radial distance r T that the distal pivot point 50 moves, or:
- the IOL 10 of the present invention may be configured so that a radial movement of the distal pivot point 50 in a magnitude of about 0.5 mm results in an axial movement of the optic 12 in a magnitude of about 2.0 mm. More generally, according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the IOL 10 is configured so that the movement members 16 amplify radial distances r into axial distances a by at least about 100%, and preferably by about 200%.
- the amplification in distance results in part from a relatively long first link or segment 44 of the movement member 16 indicated by l 1 and a relatively short second link or segment 46 of the movement member 16 indicated by l 2 .
- the movement members 16 are configured such that the first and second segments 44 and 46 are angulated and converge posteriorly toward the pivot 48 when the IOL 10 is in the most-rearward position B; that is, the pivot 48 is the most posterior element of the movement member 16 when in posterior position B.
- the pivot 48 (i.e., a proximal end of the first segment 44 and the distal end of the second segment 46 ) follows a curved path ⁇ indicated by the dashed line. In other words, the pivot 48 moves arcuately during accommodation.
- the pivot 48 has a pivotal range that preferably does not exceed 180 degrees.
- the path ⁇ shown in FIG. 7 has an angular distance that is approximately equal to the product of the first length l 1 and the total change in angular position of the first segment 44 with respect to a radial axis R. It should be noted, however, that the path ⁇ is not a segment of a circumference of a perfect circle because the vertex of the angle ⁇ moves radially; accordingly, each change in arc length ⁇ does not equal the exact product of the corresponding change in angle and length l 1 .
- the angular motion of the pivot 48 is translated to linear (i.e., axial) motion by the two-arm articulated movement member 16 . More specifically, as the distal pivot point 50 (i.e., the distal end of the first segment 44 ) moves radially along radial axis R, the proximal pivot point 52 (i.e., the proximal end of the second segment 46 ) moves axially along an axial axis A.
- distal end 22 of the movement member 16 i.e., distal pivot point 50
- proximal end 20 i.e., proximal pivot point 52
- proximal pivot point 52 axial movement (and no radial movement) along axial axis A.
- Rigid contact and engagement between the contact plates 38 and the capsular bag 32 prevents axial movement of the distal pivot point 50
- the optic 12 with a constant equatorial diameter prevents radial movement of the pivot point 52 .
- a restoring force F R is provided by the elastic tension of the zonules 36 .
- the contact surfaces 28 of the contact plates 38 provide a collective large surface area subject to cellular and fibrous growth to the capsular bag 32 so that when the ciliary muscle 34 relaxes, the zonule tension draws the capsular bag and the contact plates 38 (and, accordingly, the distal pivot point 50 ) outwardly.
- the contact surfaces 28 may include depressions or holes (not shown) which provide a purchase on which cells and fibrin may grow. It is anticipated that this cellular and fibrous growth may take place within the first few weeks after the IOL 10 is implanted in an eye. Accordingly, the IOL 10 is permanently attachable to the capsular bag 32 . This vigorous attachment of the IOL 10 to the capsular bag 32 ensures that the optic 12 moves axially in direct response to changes in the capsular bag 32 . The coupling of the contact plates 38 with the capsular bag 32 may also be accomplished with a biological glue.
- Additional restoring force for facilitating negative accommodation may be provided by rearward biasing of the haptic 16 .
- a spring force may be induced and stored by the pivot 48 during positive accommodation; accordingly, when the ciliary muscle 34 relaxes, the spring force may urge the two segments 44 and 46 together.
- the pivot 48 may be configured as a living hinge which is biased to return to the configuration when the IOL 10 is the posterior position B.
- the connection of the first segments 44 of the haptics 16 and the contact plates at the distal pivot points 50 may be configured so that a spring force is induced and stored during positive accommodation, which force is released when the ciliary muscle 34 relaxes.
- the IOLs 10 of the invention inhibit cell growth, particularly epithelial cell growth, onto the optic 12 . This is accomplished by configuring the contact plates 38 with mechanical barriers such as sharp posterior and anterior edges 56 shown in FIG. 1 .
- the proliferation of unwanted epithelial cell growth may also be inhibited through the use of material properties.
- exemplary IOL 10 may be configured such that the amount of positive or near accommodation is preferably at least about 1 diopter and may range up to 3.5 diopters or more. Further, exemplary IOL 10 may be configured to provide at least about 2.0 mm of axial movement anteriorly in the eye with about a reduction of about 2.0 mm in the equatorial diameter of the capsular bag 32 caused by the ciliary muscle 34 and the zonules 36 .
- the optic 12 may be constructed of rigid biocompatible materials such as polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) or deformable materials such as silicone polymeric materials, acrylic polymeric materials, hydrogel polymeric materials, and the like.
- PMMA polymethyl methacrylate
- deformable materials such as silicone polymeric materials, acrylic polymeric materials, hydrogel polymeric materials, and the like.
- the deformable materials allow the IOL 10 to be rolled or folded for insertion through a small incision into the eye.
- the optic 12 as shown is a refractive lens body, the present IOLs may include a diffractive lens body, and such embodiment is included within the scope of the present invention.
- the optic 12 may be either integral with or mechanically coupled to the movement assembly 14 .
- the assembly 16 may be constructed of the same or different biocompatible materials as the optic 12 , and is preferably made of polymeric materials such as polypropylene, silicone polymeric materials, acrylic polymeric materials, and the like.
- the movement assembly 14 is preferably deformable in much the same manner as the optic 12 to facilitate the passage of the IOL 10 through a small incision into the eye.
- the material or materials of construction from which the movement assembly 14 is made are chosen to provide the assembly with the desired mechanical properties, e.g., strength and deformability, to meet the needs of the particular application involved.
- the IOL 10 may be inserted into the capsular bag 32 of a mammalian eye using conventional equipment and techniques, for example, after the natural crystalline lens is removed using a phacoemulsification technique.
- the IOL 10 is preferably rolled or folded prior to insertion into the eye to be insertable through a small incision, for example, on the order of about 3.2 mm. After insertion, the IOL 10 may be positioned in the eye as shown in FIG. 1 .
- the optic 12 preferably has a diameter in the range of about 3.5 mm to about 7 mm and, more preferably, in the range of about 5 mm to about 6 mm. Further, the IOL 10 may have an overall diameter, with the movement assembly 14 in an unstressed condition, of about 8 mm to about 11 mm or 12 mm. Additionally, the optic 12 preferably has a far-vision correction power for infinity in an un-accommodated state.
- the present invention provides accommodating IOLs and methods for using such IOLs.
- the IOLs of the invention are configured to reduce the stretching of the capsular bag, to maintain the elasticity and/or integrity of the capsular bag, to enhance the effectiveness of the eye, particularly the function of the ciliary muscle and the zonules.
- the present IOLs promote the secure retention within the capsular bag by providing an enlarged contact surface to which cells and fibrin may grow.
- the present IOLs inhibit posterior capsule opacification (PCO).
